Everyone knows engaged employees are happier and improve the workforce. But engaged employees improve their managers' lives, too! Employee engagement has gotten the rap of being something "nice" to do, not something that can produce results. You need to reverse that perception in your organization by becoming an engaged leader yourself.

• Align your management style with ways to improve your workforce.

• Assess how you lead and what that says about engagement levels.

• Learn what’s in it for you after you successfully engage your employees.
